Children don't stay young forever and can become extremely challenging as they enter their teenage years. Discipline in some circumstances can be tricky, as you don't want to push them away.
One dad was slammed by other parents for his actions after his daughter was rude to him, The Mirror reports. After the confrontation, the dad punished her by throwing away her food.
The dad, who is 44 and a single dad to 16-year-old Audrey and Emily, 12, told Reddit he has a 'great relationship' with his children but Audrey can sometimes be rude and demeaning, saying cruel things casually when she's displeased about something or in a bad mood. Emily (her little sister) looks up to her, often mimicking her behavior [sic] which obviously worries me."
